So... a lot of you guys know that we are Internet friends. We have virtually met each other, but we haven't met each other in person yet. And since we are internet friends, we have planned to MEET each other in PERSON!! The meet up will take place on the wOwZeRfYiNg date of 8/12 - 8/15/2016!!
Wait, what?!
Now you may be wondering how did we get this wOwZeRfYiNg idea of MEETING?!?! Here's how it all happened!!
So, let's go back to Tuesday, November 18th, 2014, but probably even earlier. November 18th was when we discovered each other though. So... I (Rina) got an email in my inbox saying that Daniela has subscribed to me on YouTube! And since she was only my 49th subscriber, I pretty much checked out everyone's channels because I had nothing else to do! I saw her videos and I thought they were awesome!! I subscribed to her also and we started commenting on our YouTube videos!! We still do that to this day and have NO plans on ever stopping that!!
Sometime in February, Daniela got an Instagram account and we both immediately followed each other and we also like every single post on each other's account!!
Okay, enough with all this back tracking, let's get to the good stuff!!
So on Wednesday September 2, 2015, we had a DM chat at 8:56pm about *possibly meeting*, but about 0 seconds later, we thought that it shouldn't just be daydreaming, but actually making this HAPPEN!!!! We planned out some dates, and soon told our parents about everything!! I (Rina) still remember it! I wrote a letter to them about everything just hoping that it'll work out. I felt like my heart would drop if they said no. But luckily... BOTH OF OUR PARENTS SAID YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Okay we basically had a little dance party right then and there because come on, we're wowzerfying meeting next summer, like that's not dance party worthy or something?!
My mom also recommended that we start chatting on Google Hangouts and this also very wonderful fabulous wowzerfying idea of... VIDEO CALLING!!!! So I sent Daniela an invite and moments later, we called each other!!! Like are you wowzerfying kidding me right now?! That's CrAzY!!!! Hearing each others voices for the first time was crazy because we were so used to just DM texting. Now with hangouts, we can wowzerfying video call, normal call, and text!!
We video call each other almost every single day!! Even if we're both SuPeR busy that day, we'll make some time for it- even if it's in the middle of the night!!!!!!
We've been video calling about random things in life, stuff to do with YouTube/Instagram/SSG/Everything!! We have no plans to stop video calling and that's the closest thing we can do till we actually meet!!
And, at the end of every single video call, we say the following: "Peace out, stay wowzerfying, and don't cook beans!!" "Don't cook beans" is our favorite inside joke, so yeah!! And then we make this happy face with our mouth open and a thumbs up because #ThatsJustHowWeRoll!!
Hey guys. This is Daniela. I just decided to tell you my story on planning the meetup!!
It all started on the night of 9/2/2015, which was exactly 4 weeks ago. All of a sudden, I randomly thought how cool it would be if Rina and I met. After that, I thought, "What am I doing just thinking about how cool it would be?? How did I not come up with the idea that we COULD actually try to meet??"
So I believed that somehow, we could actually meet if we planned this carefully. I immediately DM'ed Rina about it, and she loved my idea!! So we started planning on where, what, and when this would happen. I was super excited that we had even the slightest possibility of meeting!! So anyhow, the next day, I told my parents about it. I was really hoping that they would both approve. Luckily, they did!! Later that day, Rina told her mom about it too, and it was a yes!! We were both so excited that we were meeting each other!! And of course, we still ARE excited!!
-Rina and Daniela!!
